Definitions
- the present invention relates to a coated catalytic converter, in particular for motor vehicles, which contains at least one metallic honeycomb-shaped catalyst carrier body which is permeable to exhaust gas and has a jacket tube carrying the latter.
- Metallic catalyst carrier bodies are known in numerous forms, for example from EF-A-0 245 737. They can, for example, be constructed from sheet steel or else be produced by powder metallurgy. Of particular importance for the durability of such a body is the control of the mechanical stresses caused by thermal alternating loads in such an arrangement. This can be done by the shape or by a special type of sheathing.
- EP-A-0 212 243 describes a holder for a catalyst carrier body, which enables the catalyst carrier body to be tension-free elongated. In this arrangement there is only one jacket tube which concentrically surrounds the catalyst carrier body at a distance.
- catalyst carrier bodies for example also that described in EP-A-0 245 737, it is not possible to do without a jacket tube which directly surrounds the actual honeycomb body and maintains its structure.
- a honeycomb body is also known from EP-A-0 177 479, in which an inner jacket tube is arranged in an outer jacket tube in such a way that it can be freely extended.
- the object of the present invention is to provide a casing for a catalytic converter which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and which also withstands large catalytic converter bodies with a volume of, for example, more than 1 liter of thermal alternating loads.
- an exhaust gas catalytic converter is equipped with the features of claim 1.
- a inner jacket tube present for reasons of stability is surrounded approximately concentrically with an outer jacket tube. A distance of about 1 to 5 mm between the two jacket tubes is preferred.
- the inner jacket tube is firmly connected in an end region to the end region of the outer jacket tube, preferably welded with a circular weld seam.
- the other end of the inner jacket tube extends freely into the interior of the outer jacket tube and can thus expand unhindered when the temperature rises.
- This type of sheathing has the following key advantages: First of all, since the inner jacket does not have to bear the internal pressure, it can be made much thinner than a simple jacket tube, for example only 0.1 to 1 mm thick.
- the inner jacket tube can warm up more quickly with the catalyst carrier body and reach a higher temperature overall than without the outer jacket. This reduces the thermal stresses inside the catalyst carrier body. Furthermore, the inner jacket tube is not exposed to any external influences, for example due to splash water, so that there is no longer any need to take this into account in the choice of material. As stated in the subclaims, a ferritic material, for example, which is optimized for this application can therefore be used. Furthermore, since it no longer fulfills any sealing function, the inner casing tube also does not have to consist of a closed sheet metal. A perforated sheet can be used, which results in considerable weight and material savings. The type, shape and size of the perforation can be varied within wide limits, but it is preferably possible to use sheets whose surface is approximately 50% provided with holes of approximately 1 cm in size.
- the inner casing tube provided that this has a certain axial length exceeds, additionally held in a sliding seat. This suppresses vibrations and prevents vibrations.
- such a sliding seat can be formed, for example, by circumferential or individual inner beads in the outer jacket. All-round inner beads increase the stability of the outer jacket and influence its sound radiation, which can be advantageous for different applications.
- Advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims.
- the outer casing tube seals the entire assembly, attaches to the rest of the exhaust system and protects against external influences, while the inner casing pipe only serves to maintain the shape and support of the actual catalyst carrier body.
- the outer jacket tube can preferably consist of austenitic material.
- the proposed sheathing system is particularly favorable when two catalyst carrier bodies are to be accommodated in an outer casing tube. It can be useful for various reasons, e.g. B. for main catalysts of motor vehicles of the upper performance class, a given volume of, for example, about 3 liters with an outside diameter of 10 to 15 cm, not to be filled with a single catalyst carrier body, but with two or more disks arranged axially one behind the other. On the one hand, such panes can be manufactured more easily and, on the other hand, the interspaces between such panes allow the exhaust gas to swirl and thus to increase the conversion rate. It can also make sense to use disks of different axial lengths, with different numbers of channels and / or different catalytically active coatings.
- the embodiment according to the invention now offers a good possibility of having two catalyst disks in to arrange an outer jacket tube.
- the two inner jacket tubes of the two catalytic converter disks are each fastened, preferably welded, at one end to the two ends of the outer jacket tube.
- the freely extensible inner ends of the two inner jacket tubes can preferably be inserted into one another by correspondingly tapering the first inner jacket tube or expanding the second inner jacket tube accordingly. This creates a sliding seat, which slides further and further together as the arrangement heats up, thus securely holding the two catalyst carrier bodies in every operating state.
- sliding seats e.g. B. possible by internal beads, between the outer and inner casing tubes.
- the double jacket system described also enables simple integration of the entire catalyst arrangement into an exhaust system by using the usual connecting pieces at the ends, for. B. pushed onto the protruding inner jacket and can be welded to the outer jacket.
- FIG. 1 shows the principle of the present invention on the basis of a large-volume catalyst which consists of two catalyst carrier bodies 1, 2.
- a large-volume catalyst which consists of two catalyst carrier bodies 1, 2.
- the catalytic converter arrangement has a first metallic honeycomb body 1 and a second metallic honeycomb body 2, which are enclosed by a first inner jacket tube 3 and a second inner jacket tube 4, respectively. Both inner jacket tubes 3, 4 project beyond the actual metallic honeycomb bodies 1, 2 at both ends.
- the inner protruding end of the first inner jacket tube 3 has a tapered collar 6 which projects into the interior of the inner collar 7 of the second inner jacket tube 4 and forms a sliding seat 5 there.
- a mixing space 14 thus remains empty between the two honeycomb bodies 1, 2, in which the exhaust gases can mix again after passing through the first metallic honeycomb body 1.
- the outer end region of the first inner jacket tube 3 has a circumferential outer bead 13, and the outer end region of the second inner jacket tube 4 also has a circumferential outer bead 12.
- An outer jacket tube 8 is pushed over the entire arrangement via the two outer beads 12, 13 and fastened to the outer beads 12, 13 with circular weld seams 10, 11.
- the outer ends of the two inner jacket tubes 3, 4 project somewhat beyond the outer jacket tube 8, so that a connector (indicated by dashed lines) 15 can easily be pushed onto the outer jacket tube until it stops.
- the connection to an exhaust system of a motor vehicle can thus be carried out without any problems, under some circumstances even the weld seams 10, 11 for the simultaneous connection of connecting pieces 15, inner jacket pipes 3 or. 4 and outside Jacket tube 8 can be used.
- FIG. 1 is in no way to scale, but only reflects the basic structure of the arrangement.
- the inner jacket tubes 3, 4 can be significantly thinner than the outer jacket tube 8.
- the mixing space 14 can have a much smaller axial length than shown here. It is only important that the dimensioning of the tapered collar 6 allows the pushed-on collar 7 sufficient scope for thermal elongation of the two inner casing tubes 3, 4.
- the honeycomb bodies 1, 2 can have different axial lengths and a different number of channels per cross-sectional unit.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show, there are various options for connecting the inner and outer jacket and for designing the end regions of the arrangement.
- the honeycomb body or bodies can be supported by internal beads.
- FIG. 2 shows two metallic honeycomb bodies 21, 22 with their inner jacket tubes 23, 24, which, as in FIG. 1, are inserted into one another by means of a tapered collar 26 and a protruding collar 27, so that a sliding seat 25 is created.
- the outer jacket 28 has a circumferential inner bead 20 which corresponds in depth to the space 29 between the outer and inner jacket systems.
- such an inner bead 20 can prevent vibrations of the honeycomb bodies 21, 22 without restricting their axial freedom of movement. Additional advantages can result from the reduction in sound radiation.
- FIG. 3 shows a catalytic converter arrangement in which the outer jacket tube consists of two parts 38a, 38b which are connected to one another 38c.
- the connection point 38c can consist, for example, of a circumferential butt weld, but the two parts 38a, 38b can also be inserted into one another and then connected.
- the arrangement of the metallic honeycomb bodies 31, 32 with its inner jacket tubes 33, 34 corresponds to that of FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the outer jacket tube 2 has circumferential inner beads 30a, 30b which support both inner jacket tubes 33, 34.
- the collars 36, 37 of the two inner casing tubes 31, 32 slide into one another with a sliding seat 35.
- Figure 3 also shows two different ways of designing the end regions of the double jacket system.
- a connector 43 can be pushed onto the projecting end 42 of the first inner jacket tube 33 until it abuts the tapered end of the outer jacket tube 38a.
- the second inner jacket tube 34 does not protrude beyond the outer jacket tube 38b.
- a connecting piece 41 can be pushed over the tapered end 40 of the outer casing tube 38b and connected to it. It makes sense here that no weld seams can damage the outer layers of the catalytic converter. Further variants in the design of the end regions of the arrangement are possible, the arrangements should generally be chosen such that the outer casing tube and the connecting pieces completely and tightly enclose the inner casing pipes.
- FIG. 4 shows an exemplary embodiment of the invention for one-piece catalysts.
- a metallic honeycomb body 51 is fixedly connected with its inner jacket tube 53 at one end to an outer jacket tube 58, with an intermediate space 59 between the two jacket tubes.
- a circumferential inner bead 50 in the outer jacket tube 58 holds the other end of the inner jacket tube 53 in a sliding seat 55, so that the catalyst 51 with the inner jacket tube 53 is freely extensible with respect to the outer jacket tube 58.
- the present catalytic converters with double jacket system are suitable for main catalytic converters of passenger cars, particularly also for large-volume catalytic converters in the upper performance class with high thermal operating loads.

Abstract
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen ummantelten Katalysator, insbesondere für Kraftfahrzeuge, welcher mindestens einen metallischen, für Abgas durchlässigen, wabenförmigen Katalysator-Trägerkörper mit einem diesen tragenden Mantelrohr enthält.The present invention relates to a coated catalytic converter, in particular for motor vehicles, which contains at least one metallic honeycomb-shaped catalyst carrier body which is permeable to exhaust gas and has a jacket tube carrying the latter.
Metallische Katalysator-Trägerkörper sind in zahlreichen Formen bekannt, so beispielsweise aus der EF-A-0 245 737. Sie können beispielsweise aus Stahlblechen aufgebaut oder auch pulvermetallurgisch hergestellt sein. Von besonderer Bedeutung für die Haltbarkeit eines solchen Körpers ist die Beherrschung der durch thermische Wechselbelastungen entstehenden mechanischen Spannungen in einer solchen Anordnung. Dies kann durch die Formgebung oder aber auch durch eine besondere Art der Ummantelung geschehen. In der EP-A-0 212 243 wird eine Halterung für einen Katalysator-Trägerkörper beschrieben, welche dem Katalysator-Trägerkörper eine spannungsfreie Längendehnung ermöglicht. Bei dieser Anordnung ist nur ein Mantelrohr vorhanden, welches den Katalysator-Trägerkörper mit Abstand konzentrisch umgibt.Metallic catalyst carrier bodies are known in numerous forms, for example from EF-A-0 245 737. They can, for example, be constructed from sheet steel or else be produced by powder metallurgy. Of particular importance for the durability of such a body is the control of the mechanical stresses caused by thermal alternating loads in such an arrangement. This can be done by the shape or by a special type of sheathing. EP-A-0 212 243 describes a holder for a catalyst carrier body, which enables the catalyst carrier body to be tension-free elongated. In this arrangement there is only one jacket tube which concentrically surrounds the catalyst carrier body at a distance.
Bei vielen Formen von Katalysator-Trägerkörpern, beispielsweise auch dem in der EP-A-0 245 737 beschriebenen, kann jedoch nicht auf ein Mantelrohr verzichtet werden, welches den eigentlichen Wabenkörper direkt umschließt und seine Struktur erhält.In many forms of catalyst carrier bodies, for example also that described in EP-A-0 245 737, it is not possible to do without a jacket tube which directly surrounds the actual honeycomb body and maintains its structure.
Aus der EP-A-0 177 479 ist auch ein Wabenkörper bekannt, bei dem ein inneres Mantelrohr frei längendehnbar in einem äußeren Mantelrohr angeordnet ist.A honeycomb body is also known from EP-A-0 177 479, in which an inner jacket tube is arranged in an outer jacket tube in such a way that it can be freely extended.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Ummantelung für einen Katalysator zu schaffen, welche einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar ist und auch für große Katalysatorkörper mit einem Volumen von beispielsweise über 1 Liter thermischen Wechselbelastungen standhält.The object of the present invention is to provide a casing for a catalytic converter which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and which also withstands large catalytic converter bodies with a volume of, for example, more than 1 liter of thermal alternating loads.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird ein Abgas-Katalysator mit den Merkmalen das Anspruchs 1 ausgestattet. Ein aus Stabilitätsgründen vorhandenes inneres Mantelrohr wird etwa konzentrisch mit einem äußeren Mantelrohr umgeben. Ein Abstand von etwa 1 bis 5 mm zwischen den beiden Mantelrohren wird dabei bevorzugt. Das innere Mantelrohr ist in einem Endbereich mit dem Endbereich des äußeren Mantelrohres fest verbunden, vorzugsweise mit einer Rundschweißnaht verschweißt. Das andere Ende des inneren Mantelrohres ragt frei in das Innere des äußeren Mantelrohres und kann sich so bei einer Erhöhung der Temperatur ungehindert ausdehnen. Diese Art der Ummantelung hat folgende entscheidenden Vorteile:
Zunächst kann der innere Mantel, da er nicht den Innendruck tragen muß, sehr viel dünner als ein einfaches Mantelrohr gemacht werden, beispielsweise nur 0,1 bis 1 mm dick. Dadurch und durch die als thermische Isolierung wirkende zusätzliche äußere Ummantelung kann das innere Mantelrohr sich schneller mit dem Katalysator-Trägerkörper aufwärmen und insgesamt eine höhere Temperatur erreichen als ohne den äußeren Mantel. Dies reduziert die thermischen Spannungen im Inneren des Katalysator-Trägerkörpers. Weiter ist das innere Mantelrohr keinen äußeren Einflüssen, beispielsweise durch Spritzwasser, ausgesetzt, so daß in der Materialauswahl hierauf keine Rücksicht mehr genommen werden muß. Wie in den Unteransprüchen angegeben, kann daher beispielsweise ein ferritisches Material, welches für diesen Einsatz optimiert ist, eingesetzt werden. Ferner braucht das innere Mantelrohr, da es keinerlei Dichtfunktion mehr erfüllt, auch nicht aus einem geschlossenen Blech zu bestehen. Es kann ein gelochtes Blech verwendet werden, was eine beachtliche Gewichts- und Materialersparnis mit sich bringt. Die Art, Form und Größe der Lochung ist in weiten Grenzen variabel, vorzugsweise können jedoch Bleche eingesetzt werden, deren Fläche zu etwa 50 % mit Löchern von etwa 1 cm Größe versehen ist.To solve this problem, an exhaust gas catalytic converter is equipped with the features of claim 1. A inner jacket tube present for reasons of stability is surrounded approximately concentrically with an outer jacket tube. A distance of about 1 to 5 mm between the two jacket tubes is preferred. The inner jacket tube is firmly connected in an end region to the end region of the outer jacket tube, preferably welded with a circular weld seam. The other end of the inner jacket tube extends freely into the interior of the outer jacket tube and can thus expand unhindered when the temperature rises. This type of sheathing has the following key advantages:
First of all, since the inner jacket does not have to bear the internal pressure, it can be made much thinner than a simple jacket tube, for example only 0.1 to 1 mm thick. As a result of this and because of the additional outer jacket acting as thermal insulation, the inner jacket tube can warm up more quickly with the catalyst carrier body and reach a higher temperature overall than without the outer jacket. This reduces the thermal stresses inside the catalyst carrier body. Furthermore, the inner jacket tube is not exposed to any external influences, for example due to splash water, so that there is no longer any need to take this into account in the choice of material. As stated in the subclaims, a ferritic material, for example, which is optimized for this application can therefore be used. Furthermore, since it no longer fulfills any sealing function, the inner casing tube also does not have to consist of a closed sheet metal. A perforated sheet can be used, which results in considerable weight and material savings. The type, shape and size of the perforation can be varied within wide limits, but it is preferably possible to use sheets whose surface is approximately 50% provided with holes of approximately 1 cm in size.
Erfindungsgemäß wird das innere Mantelrohr, sofern dies eine gewisse axiale Länge überschreitet, zusätzlich in einem Schiebesitz gehaltert Dadurch werden Schwingungen unterdrückt und Vibrationsbrüche vermieden.According to the invention, the inner casing tube, provided that this has a certain axial length exceeds, additionally held in a sliding seat. This suppresses vibrations and prevents vibrations.
Insbesondere kann ein solcher Schiebesitz beispielsweise durch umlaufende oder einzelne Innensicken im äußeren Mantel gebildet werden. Umlaufende Innensicken erhöhen dabei gleichzeitig die Stabilität des äußeren Mantels und beeinflussen dessen Schallabstrahlung, was für verschiedene Anwendungen von Vorteil sein kann. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen beschrieben.In particular, such a sliding seat can be formed, for example, by circumferential or individual inner beads in the outer jacket. All-round inner beads increase the stability of the outer jacket and influence its sound radiation, which can be advantageous for different applications. Advantageous embodiments are described in the dependent claims.
Dabei übernimmt das äußere Mantelrohr die Abdichtung der Gesamtanordnung, die Befestigung am übrigen Abgassystem und den Schutz vor äußeren Einflüssen, während das innere Mantelrohr lediglich der Formstabilität und Halterung des eigentlichen Katalysator-Trägerkörpers dient. Dabei kann das äußere Mantelrohr vorzugsweise aus austenitischem Material bestehen.The outer casing tube seals the entire assembly, attaches to the rest of the exhaust system and protects against external influences, while the inner casing pipe only serves to maintain the shape and support of the actual catalyst carrier body. The outer jacket tube can preferably consist of austenitic material.
Besonders günstig ist das vorgeschlagene Ummantelungssystem dann, wenn in einem äußeren Mantelrohr zwei Katalysator-Trägerkörper untergebracht werden sollen. Aus verschiedenen Gründen kann es sinnvoll sein, z. B. bei Hauptkatalysatoren von Kraftfahrzeugen der oberen Leistungsklasse, ein gegebenes Volumen von beispielsweise etwa 3 Litern bei 10 bis 15 cm Außendurchmesser nicht mit einem einzigen Katalysator-Trägerkörper auszufüllen, sondern mit zwei oder mehreren axial hintereinander angeordneten Scheiben. Einerseits lassen sich solche Scheiben leichter fertigen und andererseits ermöglichen die Zwischenräume zwischen solchen Scheiben eine Verwirbelung des Abgases und damit eine Erhöhung der Umsetzungsrate. Sinnvoll kann es auch sein, Scheiben von unterschiedlicher axialer Länge, mit unterschiedlicher Kanalzahl und/oder unterschiedlicher katalytisch wirksamer Beschichtung zu verwenden. Die erfindungsgemäße Ausführung bietet nun eine gute Möglichkeit, zwei Katalysatorscheiben in einem äußeren Mantelrohr anzuordnen. Wie anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert wird, werden die beiden inneren Mantelrohre der beiden Katalysatorscheiben jeweils mit einem Ende an den beiden Enden des äußeren Mantelrohres befestigt, vorzugsweise angeschweißt. Die frei längendehnbaren inneren Enden der beiden inneren Mantelrohre können bevorzugt ineinandergesteckt werden, indem das erste innere Mantelrohr entsprechend verjüngt oder das zweite innere Mantelrohr entsprechend aufgeweitet wird. So entsteht ein Schiebesitz, welcher sich bei zunehmender Aufwärmung der Anordnung immer weiter ineinanderschiebt und damit in jedem Betriebszustand eine sichere Halterung der beiden Katalysator-Trägerkörper bewirkt. Alternativ oder zusätzlich sind aber auch Schiebesitze, z. B. durch Innensicken, zwischen dem äußeren und den inneren Mantelrohren möglich.The proposed sheathing system is particularly favorable when two catalyst carrier bodies are to be accommodated in an outer casing tube. It can be useful for various reasons, e.g. B. for main catalysts of motor vehicles of the upper performance class, a given volume of, for example, about 3 liters with an outside diameter of 10 to 15 cm, not to be filled with a single catalyst carrier body, but with two or more disks arranged axially one behind the other. On the one hand, such panes can be manufactured more easily and, on the other hand, the interspaces between such panes allow the exhaust gas to swirl and thus to increase the conversion rate. It can also make sense to use disks of different axial lengths, with different numbers of channels and / or different catalytically active coatings. The embodiment according to the invention now offers a good possibility of having two catalyst disks in to arrange an outer jacket tube. As will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing, the two inner jacket tubes of the two catalytic converter disks are each fastened, preferably welded, at one end to the two ends of the outer jacket tube. The freely extensible inner ends of the two inner jacket tubes can preferably be inserted into one another by correspondingly tapering the first inner jacket tube or expanding the second inner jacket tube accordingly. This creates a sliding seat, which slides further and further together as the arrangement heats up, thus securely holding the two catalyst carrier bodies in every operating state. Alternatively or additionally, sliding seats, e.g. B. possible by internal beads, between the outer and inner casing tubes.
Das beschriebene Doppelmantelsystem ermöglicht schließlich auch eine einfache Einbindung der gesamten Katalysatoranordnung in ein Abgassystem, indem an den Enden die üblichen Anschlußstücke z. B. auf den überstehenden Innenmantel aufgeschoben und mit dem Außenmantel verschweißt werden können.Finally, the double jacket system described also enables simple integration of the entire catalyst arrangement into an exhaust system by using the usual connecting pieces at the ends, for. B. pushed onto the protruding inner jacket and can be welded to the outer jacket.

Figur 1 zeigt das Prinzip der vorliegenden Erfindung anhand eines großvolumigen Katalysators, der aus zwei Katalysator-Trägerkörpern 1, 2 besteht. Durch Weglassen eines der beiden Katalysatorkörper und entsprechendes Verkürzen des äußeren Mantelrohres 8 in Figur 1 ergibt sich jedoch auch das Wesen der vorliegenden Erfindung bei der Anwendung auf einteilige Katalysatoren z.

By omitting one of the two catalyst bodies and correspondingly shortening the
In Figur 1 weist die Katalysatoranordnung einen ersten metallischen Wabenkörper 1 und einen zweiten metallischen Wabenkörper 2 auf, welche von einem ersten inneren Mantelrohr 3 bzw. einem zweiten inneren Mantelrohr 4 umschlossen sind. Beide inneren Mantelrohre 3, 4 stehen an beiden Enden über die eigentlichen metallischen Wabenkörper 1, 2 über. Dabei weist das innere überstehende Ende des ersten inneren Mantelrohres 3 einen verjüngten Kragen 6 auf, welcher in das Innere des inneren Kragens 7 des zweiten inneren Mantelrohres 4 hineinragt und dort mit diesem einen Schiebesitz 5 bildet.

Die äußeren Enden der beiden inneren Mantelrohre 3, 4 stehen etwas über das äußere Mantelrohr 8 über, so daß leicht ein (gestrichelt angedeutetes) Anschlußstück 15 bis zum Anschlag an das äußere Mantelrohr aufgeschoben werden kann. Der Anschluß an ein Abgassystem eines Kraftfahrzeuges kann somit problemlos erfolgen, wobei unter Umständen sogar die Schweißnähte 10, 11 zur gleichzeitigen Verbindung von Anschlußstücken 15, inneren Mantelrohren 3-bzw. 4 und äußerem Mantelrohr 8 genutzt werden können. Es sei hinzugefügt, daß die Figur 1 in keiner Weise maßstäblich ist, sondern nur den prinzipiellen Aufbau der Anordnung wiedergibt. Insbesondere können die inneren Mantelrohre 3, 4 wesentlich dünner als das äußere Mantelrohr 8 sein. Außerdem kann der Mischraum 14 eine viel kleinere axiale Länge haben als hier dargestellt. Wichtig ist nur, daß die Dimensionierung des verjüngten Kragens 6 dem aufgeschobenen Kragen 7 genügend Spielraum für eine thermische Längendehnung der beiden inneren Mantelrohre 3, 4 läßt. Die Wabenkörper 1, 2 können unterschiedliche axiale Länge und eine unterschiedliche Zahl von Kanälen pro Querschnittseinheit aufweisen.In FIG. 1, the catalytic converter arrangement has a first metallic honeycomb body 1 and a second metallic honeycomb body 2, which are enclosed by a first
Wie die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen, gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten der Verbindung von innerem und äußerem Mantel und der Gestaltung der Endbereiche der Anordnung. Außerdem können der oder die Wabenkörper durch Innensicken abgestützt sein. So zeigt Figur 2 zwei metallische Wabenkörper 21, 22 mit ihren inneren Mantelrohren 23, 24, welche wie in Figur 1 mittels eines verjüngten Kragens 26 und eines überstehenden Kragens 27 ineinandergesteckt sind, so daß ein Schiebesitz 25 entsteht. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel weist der Außenmantel 28 eine umlaufende Innensicke 20 auf, welche in ihrer Tiefe dem Zwischenraum 29 zwischen dem äußeren und inneren Mantelsystem entspricht. Bei Katalysatoranordnungen mit relativ großer axialer Länge kann eine solche Innensicke 20 Schwingungen der Wabenkörper 21, 22 verhindern, ohne deren axiale Bewegungsfreiheit einzuschränken. Zusätzliche Vorteile können sich durch die Verringerung der Schallabstrahlung ergeben.As FIGS. 2 and 3 show, there are various options for connecting the inner and outer jacket and for designing the end regions of the arrangement. In addition, the honeycomb body or bodies can be supported by internal beads. Thus, FIG. 2 shows two
Figur 3 zeigt eine Katalysatoranordnung, bei der das äußere Mantelrohr aus zwei Teilen 38a, 38b besteht, welche miteinander verbunden 38c sind. Die Verbindungsstelle 38c kann beispielsweise in einer umlaufenden Stumpfschweißnaht bestehen, die beiden Teile 38a, 38b können aber auch ineinandergesteckt und dann verbunden sein. Die Anordnung der metallischen Wabenkörper 31, 32 mit ihren inneren Mantelrohren 33, 34 entspricht denen der Figuren 1 und 2. Im vorliegenden Fall weist das äußere Mantelrohr 2 umlaufende Innensicken 30a, 30b auf, welche beide inneren Mantelrohre 33, 34 abstützen. Auch hier gleiten die Kragen 36, 37 der beiden inneren Mantelrohre 31, 32 mit Schiebesitz 35 ineinander. Figur 3 zeigt zusätzlich noch zwei verschiedene Möglichkeiten der Gestaltung der Endbereiche des Doppelmantelsystems. Links kann ein Anschlußstück 43 auf das überstehende Ende 42 des ersten inneren Mantelrohres 33 aufgeschoben werden, bis es an das verjüngte Ende des äußeren Mantelrohres 38a stößt. An der rechten Seite steht das zweite innere Mantelrohr 34 nicht über das äußere Mantelrohr 38b über. Dort kann jedoch ein Anschlußstück 41 über das verjüngte Ende 40 des äußeren Mantelrohres 38b geschoben und mit diesem verbunden werden. Sinnvoll ist dabei, daß keine Schweißnähte die äußeren Lagen des Katalysators beschädigen können. Weitere Varianten in der Gestaltung der Endbereiche der Anordnung sind möglich, wobei die Anordnungen im allgemeinen so gewählt werden sollten, daß das äußere Mantelrohr und die Anschlußstücke die inneren Mantelrohre vollständig und dicht umschließen.FIG. 3 shows a catalytic converter arrangement in which the outer jacket tube consists of two
Figur 4 zeigt der Vollständigkeit halber noch ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung für einteilige Katalysatoren. Ein metallischer Wabenkörper 51 ist mit seinem inneren Mantelrohr 53 an einer Stirnseite fest mit einem äußeren Mantelrohr 58 verbunden, wobei ein Zwischenraum 59 zwischen beiden Mantelrohren vorhanden ist. Eine umlaufende Innensicke 50 im äußeren Mantelrohr 58 haltert das andere Ende des inneren Mantelrohres 53 in einem Schiebesitz 55, so daß der Katalysator 51 mit dem inneren Mantelrohr 53 frei längendehnbar gegenüber dem äußeren Mantelrohr 58 ist.For the sake of completeness, FIG. 4 shows an exemplary embodiment of the invention for one-piece catalysts. A
Die vorliegenden Katalysatoren mit Doppelmantelsystem eignen sich für Hauptkatalysatoren von Personenkraftwagen, besonders auch für großvolumige der oberen Leistungsklasse mit hoher thermischer Betriebsbelastung.The present catalytic converters with double jacket system are suitable for main catalytic converters of passenger cars, particularly also for large-volume catalytic converters in the upper performance class with high thermal operating loads.
